Last weekend I drove down to the San Bernard NWR for the Migration Celebration. It was very busy and full of activities but I only had time for a trip to the San Bernard Oak and to see the exhibit hall which included the photo contest exhibits. The photo above is the 2nd place award I won for the Nature Photography as Art part of the contest. As I said, I entered on a whim, mostly to test my skills to see if I even had a chance. And I guess I did.
But, I don’t think I will enter this contest again.
The photos above were the rest of what I submitted but did not win anything on.
I think I need to find something less bird-crazy next time. Something a little more artsy like what my photos tend to be.

So fun, whenever I go to these things I think about entering but never do. It’s always nice to do something out of the norm.

Congrats! I would NEVER enter a show. I’m such a chicken when it comes to anything like that.

Thanks for the comments! I was definitely surprised to have won anything—and the entry fee was low and it all went to the refuge—a good thing!

Congrats! It’s always fun to enter shows and see what other photographers are up to. And it does seem a bit heavy on the birds haha
